Chapter 186: Reincarnation Buddha Cave

The Iron Rod Lama immediately decided to go with me and destroy the tomb of the Demon King. As the Buddha's iron rod protector, this demon eradication is a top priority, and although he has not sung the poem of the King of the Treasure Orb for more than 30 years, this heavenly grant is not the result of learning, and if you think about it, you can still remember a lot.

I'm worried that the lama is getting older, after all, he's sixty years old, and he's not as old as he used to be. According to the clues in the scriptures, the demon tower dedicated to the "glacier crystal corpse" is at the top of the snow-capped mountain, what if there is an accident.

The Iron Rod Lama said, "I made a great wish to go around the lake here, but the child is still not getting better, and I hope that this time I will do something of great merit and bring back Gema's soul from the underworld (Tibetans consider losing their minds to be a detachment of the soul). After the deed is completed, I will come back around the lake to make a vow. Practitioners have a completely different view of death and life than ordinary people, and if they die in the process of accumulating merits, they will surely pass away in bliss.

When I saw that the lama insisted on going, I also felt that I couldn't ask for it. The Iron Rod Lama is proficient in Tibetan customs, and knows Tantric medicine, with his guidance and help, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort. So we packed up and took us to the Ali region under the Himalayas in the westernmost part of Tibet.

In Senge Zangbo, he joined the fat man Uncle Ming and others. They had just arrived, and I was a little more numerous, as if there was one more person. In addition to me and the four people of Fat Man, Shirley Yang, and Iron Rod Lama, Uncle Ming had Peter Huang, Han Shuna, Ah Xiang, and Uncle Ming's Ma Tsai Ah Dong also came.

I asked the fat man why Ah Dong also followed? The fat man told me that Adong's grandson usually runs errands for Uncle Ming, and this time he knew that Uncle Ming was going to do big business, and begged Uncle Ming to bring him with him every day. Later, I begged to go to the big gold tooth, and asked the big gold tooth to help say something good, and the big gold tooth received the benefits, so he babbled Uncle Ming, saying that the lowest place in Tibet is more than 4,000 meters above sea level, and you have to bring someone to serve the oxygen cylinder. Doesn't this just let Ah Dong carry oxygen cylinders for them?

I thought to myself that this time it was really lively, there were more and more people, and there were nine people before I reached the Guge King City. But there is no way, once you find a clue to the reincarnation of the demon kingdom in the demon tower, you will act separately from them, and you can't always get mixed up.

At that time, there was no road to pass on the Guge ruins, so I had to ask the guide to hire a few yaks, and let a few people with severe altitude sickness ride the cattle, but fortunately, there were no heavy supplies. After resting for two days in the small town of Senge Zangbo, where there were only more than 100 households, he set off to the ruins of the royal city to find the Guge Silver Eye.

The road is very desolate, without any people, and the yellow and sparse grass is scattered on the Gobi. There was no wind, looking at the sky, the eyes were full of blue, and the dry soil and grass on the ground were a little dazzling. The brown mountains in the distance look strange and strange, making people dare not look at it.

We didn't move fast, and I led the yak for the lama. On the back of the ox, the Iron Rod Lama told me the poems he had learned from God, which were all bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and the war was about to come and go.

At this point, some wooden stakes protruding from the ground appeared on the side of the road, which Shirley Young said looked somewhat like the remains of an ancient tomb. As soon as he heard about the ancient tomb, even Uncle Ming, who had difficulty breathing on the back of the cow, came to his senses and stretched his neck to look at the roadside.

The guide said that the ancient tombs had long been deserted, and the contents were gone. Don't look at the desolate and barren place, in fact, around the time of the Tang Dynasty, it was full of Qilian juniper, and the structure of the ancient tomb was paved with the whole Qilian juniper. This kind of strange tree does not like drought or tide, only in the mountains at the junction of Qinghai and Tibet, it was given to the king of the earth by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and it was transported thousands of miles away. However, after the civil strife of the local domain, these tombs were destroyed, and the ruins have been preserved to this day.

After walking through the ruins of this desolate mound, it took about a day of walking to reach the ancient city. It has been discovered for a long time, and in addition to a large number of murals, carvings and statues, it is the ruins of the city. At that time, it did not attract the attention of the autonomous county government, and it was not like a few years later when the iron gate was installed and guarded by people, and no one traveled far and wide to see this ruin.

From the bottom of the mountain, there is a drop of about 300 meters from the slope to the top of the mountain, and there are buildings and caves in the same color as the earth. Except for the temple with a relatively strong structure, most of the rest of the houses have collapsed, and some only have some earthen walls, and there are remnants of city walls and watchtowers on the periphery. The entire royal castle was built on a hill, with the royal palace at the top of the hill at the top, the temple at the middle, and the dwellings and defensive buildings on the perimeter below.

I said to Uncle Ming, "The Guge ruins are not big, but it will take us some time to find these hundreds of houses and caves." What exactly is the Guge Silver Eye you are talking about? Let's just go straight to the past according to the goal. ”

Due to altitude sickness, Uncle Ming's thinking has become very sluggish, and it took him a long time to remember that it was probably in the temple, not in the palace. According to the scriptures, there should be a "temple of reincarnation" here, and it should be there.

Among the ruins of the royal city, several temples stand out from the crowd, which can be seen at a glance. Of course, there are temple ruins such as the Red Temple, the White Temple, and the Reincarnation Temple, and we can't tell which one is right or which, so we have to consult the Iron Rod Lama. Of course, the lama could tell which was the "temple of reincarnation" from the structure outside, so he pointed out the direction and passed through the temple of the protector of the Dharma, and behind it there were several red pillars, which was the temple of reincarnation dedicated to the silver eye of Guge.

Explorers had visited this kind of place back in the thirties, and I had never heard of any danger, but I gave the fat man a shotgun just to be on the safe side. Carrying one by himself, he led the team around the layers of earthen walls and climbed halfway up the mountain. In the ruins, the houses are largely unpreserved. With the evaporation of the dry weather in Tibet, the weathering intensified, if it was just dry, in the rainy season, the torrential rain here is like a note, year after year of weathering and erosion, the once dense soil becomes brittle, little by little, crushed, as soon as an external force is exerted, it becomes a piece of dust. The corners of the city that should be protruding such as the broken walls and remnants have been damaged and polished, and the city, which was once full of life, is being silently digested by nature.

We were afraid of being knocked down by the collapsed pillars of the house, so we tried to find an open place to detour. Uncle Ming and his wife can barely support it, but the thin Ah Xiang can't bear it anymore, and it will be fatal to climb to a higher place. Uncle Ming had no choice but to let Peter Huang stay at the bottom of the mountain to take care of her, and the rest of the people continued to move forward, and when they climbed to the Dharma Protector Temple, most of them were already panting.

I was used to the thin air, but as I rested against the wall, my breathing immediately became heavy when I came to the murals in the temple. The fat man gasped and said to me: "Lao Hu, I didn't expect that this place is actually a sanitary blind spot of spiritual civilization, and there are such powerful yellow pictures, if you want to see them in Beijing, you have to be detained." ”

The murals here are all tantric double cultivators, the painting style is pungent and the colors are strong, which makes people look red-faced. Walking further inward, the content of the mural takes a sharp turn, all of which are the suffering of hell reincarnation, depicting the torture in hell layer by layer, and the scene is horrific. The lama said that this temple was forbidden for hundreds of years, and the common people could not go to the door at most, but they could no longer go inside, and the king could not enter it casually after the clergy.

The former glory and forbidden land have collapsed and weathered, and we have taken a breath and rushed in. The reincarnation temple behind the shrine is slightly less eroded by wind and rain because it is recessed inside, and it is still well preserved. The most prominent in the temple are several large red pillars, with layers of lamps embedded in the pillars, and the top of the top has been broken and leaked several large holes. The newspaper offices are gone, and I don't know if they have been stolen or rotted into dirt.

I looked around, and it was in tatters, and there was no relief of the "Guge Silver Eye". Uncle Ming pointed to the top of his head: "Probably this carving is what I am referring to." ”

We looked up, and it was just daylight, and the sun was shining through the holes in the roof. When I look up, I feel a little dazzling, and my eyes are glazed, but I can see that the entire roof is a whole colorful picture, half carved and half painted, although some of it has fallen off, and some of it has been damaged by the collapse of the building, but it still has about 75 percent preserved.

The mural on the top of this painting has a huge eyeball in the center, and a radial totem on the outside, divided into eight colors, each of which is a different mythical beast. There is also a circle on the outermost side, and there are dozens of naked empty mothers, with thousands of manners, none of them are the same. As expected, this is the ancient tantric feng shui coordinate "Guge Silver Eye".

I said to Uncle Ming, this time we should take out the ancient scripture and let us take a look, if you don't understand it, with this coordinate alone, you can't figure out the specific location of the demon tower.

Uncle Ming found a red pillar and sat down to gasp, Adong took out the oxygen tube and inhaled him a few times, so that he could speak, and reached into his bag to touch the scripture. At this time, a click was suddenly heard, a pillar in the temple fell, everyone shouted, hurriedly scattered around to dodge, the giant pillar collapsed, and in the chaos, I didn't see whether it hit anyone clearly.

It turned out that the foundation of the pillar that Uncle Ming was leaning on had fallen, and it usually looked like nothing was wrong when he poked it, but as soon as he leaned on it, it fell down. Thanks to the fact that he fell outward, otherwise the temple would be narrow, and if he knocked down other pillars, he would have to be stoned to death. Seeing that the roof was missing all the big pillars, although it had not collapsed, everyone did not dare to stay in the temple anymore, and they all wanted to go out first, and then make plans when they got to a safe place outside.

As we walked outside, we suddenly found that inside an earthen wall that had been knocked down by a pillar, a large dark space was revealed, which seemed to be a closed secret room. As soon as the wall fell, the rotten gas rushed out. It is said that the Italians found a large number of caves in this ruin, with different functions, the more famous one is the headless dry corpse cave, and there is also a weapon cave for storing weapons, but they are far away from this "reincarnation temple". What is in the secret cave in this temple?

The fat man took out the flashlight, opened it and shone it inside, and everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by what was inside. The outermost is a bronze statue of three eyes and four arms wearing a crown of Buddha, sitting on the lotus platform of the beast, with three silver shining eyes, shining in the golden Buddha statue.

However, behind the three-eyed Buddha statue, there was a tightly closed black iron door, and the door was covered with countless spell scriptures, as if something could not be released inside.
